Arrival from 18.30. Place your money (£4) in the tin when you arrive. Toilets are available. There is space to leave jackets, drinks etc. Feel free to jog around or have a chat. The session will begin at 18:45.

Directions
If you follow Google Maps to Spinkhill Athletics Track, it will take you through a one-way system to a small dimly lit car park near the track. If you don’t fancy the windy road, you can also park in the college car park. Please note, the small road down to the track is not one way.
